PHOTOS/VIDEO: Rafael Nadal withdraws from Paris Masters due to knee injury

 

PARIS (AFP): Rafael Nadal has pulled out of the Paris Masters with injury on Friday.
The Spaniard told a news conference ahead of his quarter-final match against Serbian Filip Krajinovic that he was suffering from a right knee problem.
Nadal added that he was going to try his best to be fit for the season-ending ATP Tour Finals which take place November 12-19 in London.

“I have to pull out,” Nadal said at a press conference. “Of course, it’s a very hard decision for me, especially — pulling out from any event is tough, but especially from here, from Paris. As I said a lot of times, it's the most important city in my career, without a doubt.”

“The knee is always bothering a little bit but sometimes it’s worse.” -

Rafael Nadal to end year as world number one

 

There will be no end-of-season arm-wrestle for the world No 1 ranking at London’s O2 Arena, sadly for the Nitto ATP Finals. Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer have travelled in parallel for much of the year, but Nadal has claimed a victory in Paris that gives him 1,550-point lead over his great rival.

Given that Federer can only collect a maximum of 1,500 points in London, Nadal is now safely established at the head of the rankings ladder - until the beginning of 2018 at least.

He will thus end the year as No 1 for the fourth time, having split the four majors equally with Federer. And the ATP will have to live without a repeat of last year’s cliffhanger at the O2, where Andy Murray secured the top position by beating his own great rival Novak Djokovic in the season’s final match.

VIDEO: Series. Rafa Nadal (by Movistar)

 


“I train four hours a day for 210 days of the year. That makes… a lot! 

“If we add to that, the 80 tennis matches I play per year, with each game averaging about two hours in duration. That makes, uff… a thousand hours playing tennis every year. And that doesn’t even count the days I spend training during tournaments. 

I change the strings on my racket every nine games. End to end, the strings on a tennis racket are 10 metres in length. So, including my training sessions, I don’t know how many kilometres of string I go through in a year!
